[Ah~]
[Who can tell me what is going on?] 】
Anjiu tried to pretend to be asleep but was disturbed by the screaming chicken and couldn't pretend anymore.
She opened her eyes, got up calmly, and looked at the things on the ground.
You can't talk about things. There is a cage on the ground and there is a person in the cage.
It was a young man, wearing a thin white shirt, huddled timidly in a cage, with scars of varying depths all over his body.
"What's going on?" the emperor asked in a deep voice.
An Jiu looked at him and said calmly, "You bought it, sir."
The emperor shook his head: "Impossible, I...why would I buy a person?"
An Jiu let out a silent breath and pointed at the things on the table.
A pink plum blossom potted plant?
An Jiu told him: "This thing costs one thousand two silvers."
At that time, she really wanted to strangle the tyrant to death. Was she sick? One thousand taels of silver to buy a pot of plum blossoms?
spendthrift.
Later, when the plum blossoms were brought back, An Jiu discovered that the plum blossoms were actually jade potted plants. Both the petals and the flower stems were extremely lifelike and exquisite. From this point of view, one thousand taels of silver were not expensive.
The emperor frowned and roared in his heart, but he quickly calmed down. He asked An Jiu to tell him what happened last night and why he bought a pot of jade plum blossoms for each person.
An Jiu: "..."
Not long after they arrived at this room last night, someone brought them clothes and masks. No one knew what they were for, and when they asked the tyrant he wouldn't tell them, only saying it was fun.
After they changed their clothes, they were taken to a living room. An Jiu saw many people wearing cloaks and masks, and she quickly knew what this place was used for.
This is a black auction house.
Selling invisible poison that kills people, beautiful women who have been trained, notorious murderers, killers with special skills, slaves in the field, priceless treasures from the palace, underwear worn by a certain beautiful imperial concubine, etc.
An Jiu was amazed by what he saw.
The tyrant looked around, seemingly interested in everything.
Then the pot of plum blossoms was brought up.
Their conversation at that time was.
Country bumpkin An Jiu exclaimed: "This flower is so beautiful. It must have taken a lot of effort to grow it so well in this season."
What the tyrant heard: It’s really beautiful, I like it.
Therefore, the tyrant waved his hand and spent a thousand taels of silver to bid for it.
An Jiu was so distressed that he didn't pay attention to the things that came after him until this cage was brought up.
At first, An Jiu didn't know what this was for, and only understood it after discussing it with the people around him.
Most countries in Dongzhou and the mainland have not abolished slavery. For example, An Jiu and Eunuch Li are slaves, but their situation is better than that of slaves in other countries.
This young man in the cage is used to satisfy the powerful people's torture and killing for pleasure.
The people in charge of the gang whipped the young man in the cage continuously. Blood soon seeped out of the young man's white clothes, but he had no way to avoid it in the cage and could only passively endure it.
The people on the stage were watching with excitement.
In their eyes, perhaps there is no difference between the people in the cages and pigs, dogs and animals.
But An Jiu couldn't bear to look away, she turned her head away and sighed: "He is so pitiful..."
An Jiu is not a saint, but she really can't stand this kind of simple slaughter.
The tyrant took one look at her, then slapped the man.
At that time, the seller told them that they could take it away tomorrow or have it delivered to their door, but Tyrant refused to do so. He believed that what he bought was his, so he took it back to the room to show Xiaojiu.
As a result, as soon as he entered the room, the tyrant fell asleep because he had expended too much energy.
Only Anjiu and the Chu people were left staring at each other.
He felt uncomfortable with an extra person in the room, and Anjiu felt sorry for him and asked him if he wanted some water.
The Chu people were so frightened that they huddled in a corner and trembled.
They are all cattle and horses...
Anjiu went outside and bought him some snacks and tea.
He was very scared at first, but then he ate voraciously.
After eating, he seemed to relax a little.
An Jiu took a look at him in the candlelight. Although his face was scarred, she could tell that he was definitely a very handsome man, otherwise he would not have been carried up on the stage for auction.
For the lower class people of this era, beauty may also be a sin.
Both men and women.
An Jiu said to him: "Don't be afraid, we are not bad people."
The Chu man stared at her without saying a word. An Jiu inexplicably thought of the tyrant, who also looked at people like this in the past. She smiled and gave him a blanket. Maybe he was too tired, and he fell asleep soon.
An Jiu couldn't hold on any longer. The bed was not comfortable. She pushed the tyrant to the corner and fell asleep herself...
After listening to An Jiu's narration, the emperor frowned, then he stepped forward and went to see the plum blossoms first.
[This thing is average. I have several of them in my warehouse. 】
[Does Silly Goose like it?] 】
The emperor thought seriously about what An Jiu had just said, as if she thought it was a real plum blossom at that time.
What a country bumpkin.
I'll give her a prettier one when I get back, so that this country bumpkin can open her eyes.
The emperor thought so and stood in front of the cage and looked at the person inside. The person in the cage had woken up and was looking out in horror.
[A good-looking man...]
"What do you mean?" asked the emperor.
That year shrank back: "Ah Chen."
The emperor asked again: "Are you from Chu?"
Ah Chen nodded.
The emperor narrowed his eyes and his gaze lingered on the teardrop mole at the corner of his eye for a moment.
[Even the members of the royal family of Chu State like this, it's so effeminate and ugly. 】
Emperor of Chu? ? ?
An Jiu turned to look at that girl. He didn't notice it last night. It really was a teardrop mole.
Such a face, such a mole, is very beautiful and charming.
The emperor looked at him for a few seconds and then looked away, losing interest in a slave.
But since I had already missed the morning court, I was in no hurry to go back, so I just had breakfast here.
An Jiu discovered that the emperor was very familiar with this place. While eating breakfast, he glanced at An Jiu who was standing. An Jiu was also really hungry, and he stared at the emperor and swallowed his saliva several times.
The emperor was speechless: "If you want to eat, come and get it."
An Jiu didn't bother to be polite with him. She took some as well and went to eat nearby.
The stuff here is very well made.
It’s much better than the staff meals in the palace.
Then……,
An Jiu noticed a gaze, and when she looked up, she saw the beautiful young man in the cage staring at her and swallowing his saliva. Being discovered, he embarrassedly looked away.
An Jiu: "..."
She took only enough for herself to eat…
Then she looked at the emperor, who looked very pretty while eating...
An Jiu looked at the food on his table.
He gritted his teeth and went over to take some, and secretly gave some to the Chu people.
The emperor glanced at her.
An Jiu hurriedly buried his head in eating.
It was already noon when they returned to the palace. The emperor took a carriage and they met Lin Yu halfway.
Lin Yu's face was cracked by the cold wind. He said with red eyes: "Your Majesty..."
The emperor nodded and asked Lin to deal with the matter of Plum Blossom Villa.
"Plum Blossom Villa?"
Could it be the place we went to last night?
An Jiu muttered something, and the emperor heard it. The emperor asked her, "Are you scared?"
An Jiu paused.
What's the meaning?
The emperor smiled and said maliciously: "If you dare to betray me, you will be just like that man from Chu."
An Jiu: "..."
No, he is sick.
Can this be linked to her?
An Jiu rolled her eyes in her heart, but she expressed her loyalty: "I will never betray your Majesty."
The emperor laughed in a mean way.
Listening to his laughter, An Jiu had the urge to punch him to shut him up.
